Answer:
The correct answers are option A. "Mutating histidine residue 274 of the citrate synthase enzyme to an alanine amino acid would likely eliminate or reduce the enzymatic activity of citrate synthase", B. "The histidine residue would hydrogen bond to acetyl-CoA throughout the reaction mechanism, stabilizing the enolate intermediate", and D. "Oxaloacetate would be repulsed from aspartic acid in the first step of the reaction mechanism".
Explanation:
Citrate cycle is comprised of a series of reactions used in aerobic organisms to release energy from different chemical species. In this cycle, the citrate synthase enzyme catalyzes the first reaction which is the formation of citrate by the condensation of acetyl-CoA and oxaloacetate. The enzymatic activity depends on the histidine residue 274, which acts as proton donor to the carbonyl oxygen of acetyl CoA stabilizing the enolate intermediate of citrate. Therefore, a mutating histidine residue 274 of the citrate synthase enzyme to an alanine amino acid would likely eliminate or reduce the enzymatic activity of citrate synthase, also oxaloacetate would be repulsed from aspartic acid in the first step of the reaction mechanism as a result of this modification.
Answer: Cellular respiration is a set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert chemical energy from oxygen molecules or nutrients into adenosine triphosphate, and then release waste products.
Explanation:
The answer is (1.) entering the torpor
The hummingbirds are the tiniest bird in the world but is
also the biggest eater. They burn food so fast they often eat up to 3 times
their weight. They feed on nectars and insect. When they can’t eat especially
on cold temperatures, these birds go in a sleeping state called torpor. A
fascinating way to conserve energy.
This is due to the fact that only homologous chromosomes would have identical genes located at identical sites on those chromosomes. Otherwise, there would be no connection between the alleles of various genes.
Although the genes and loci of the two members of the homologous pair are similar, the alleles may vary.For instance, both allele possess the genes responsible for the attribute of eye colour. While the one has alleles for the blue-eye trait, other has alleles for the brown-eye trait. The homologous chromosomes are said to be heterozygous in this instance since the alleles are different.
On the other hand, when both alleles for a gene that codes for the blue-eye phenotype are present, it is said to be homozygous.

Strong base. Anything below seven is an acid while anything above it will be a base. Seven is Neutral because it is directly in the middle. <span />
